Plasma Weekly Meeting, 2 October 2017, 12:00 CEST #plasma on freenode

Sho:
* Wrote a proof-of-concept patch for making Sonnet work on Qt Quick TextEdits: success, we can have spell-checking in Kirigami apps
* Fixed some libtm unit test failures
* QtWS coordination, things are finally all falling into place
* Tons of Konversation rewrite coding making more stuff work again
* It's the biggest holiday season of the year here, today I'm at a KDE-themed hackathon (https://i.imgur.com/iicF0aC.jpg) with others left behind in Seoul amidst the general "go back to hometown" travel, now running off to group dinner

d_ed:
Things I've done:
 * merged most my stuff to make plasma works with the software renderer
 * KCM needs some deciding on what to do
 * Also started the kwayland side of protocol-filtering
   if you have opinions on how that should be done, please discuss here: https://phabricator.kde.org/T4437
   Task 4437 "[kwayland] Security filter" [Open,Needs Triage] {Plasma on Wayland} https://phabricator.kde.org/T4437
other stuff:
* we have 8 failing unit tests on build.kde.org ATM, This is ridiculous, I will now list them and assign them to people here

bshah:
- Arch Linux images
    - Got stuck with wayland eglplatform not being functional upto yesterday
    - Got hold of libhybris developer yesterday to get the fix for the issue
    - Turns out yet another glibc 2.26 related issue
    - now plasma runs, will fix some more stuff to create flashable rootfs

notmart:
* kirigami: the colorset stuff should be more or less final now, in all 4 reviews, needs to decide the final location for the part in plasma-integration, opinions needed
** qqc2-desktop-style: use kirigami theme and support local palettes provided by the colorSet
* bugfixes in systemsettings:
** tooltip dismissal and placement
** difference in focus indication for sidebar items between active and not active focus (kirigami issue)
** fixes for for right-to-left layouts (both kirigami and systemsettings issues)
* different approach to KIconLoader custom colors: https://phabricator.kde.org/D8060  : IMPORTANT: this has to go is ASAP as the old change changed dependencies breaking compatibility, so has to be merged before frameworks release, so please review.
Diff 8060 "allow to set a custom palette instead of colorSets" [Needs Review] https://phabricator.kde.org/D8060

sebas:
* stuff I forget, somehow last week feels like a blur
* blogged about convergence: https://vizzzion.org/blog/2017/09/plasma-mobile-and-convergence/
* Blogged about KDE's privacy goal: https://vizzzion.org/blog/2017/09/privacy-software/
* one more technical blog about convergence lined up, just needs some illustrations and proof-reading
* got new laptop, built all the things, pray for this to be the mother of all laptops that never breaks
* purism phone campaign crossed 900K \o/
